I quite liked the premise of this film where the main character is under house arrest. The acting wasn't too bad, especially Famke Janssen. However, the film had way too many flaws for me to take it seriously and I am surprised by all the favourable reviews: The ghost was just terrible quality cgi and way too physical. It could do all sorts of things, had no subtlety and would surely have killed her long ago if that's what it wanted to do. She gave in and invited the grocery boy in for sex when she knew she was putting his life at serious risk. What person would do that?! The copper fluctuated too much in his attitude towards her..one minute hating her for killing his best friend, the next trying to exonerate her..and why would he be allowed to just camp outside her door all the time? And he would have heard the screams and been in there way before she had time to clean up so well and hide the boy's body. She realised she had to get rid of all the things connected with her husband, threw her wedding ring stupidly down the garbage disposal..putting her hand in when she knew her husband's ghost was around..and yet then still put the ring back on!!? And she stayed in the house stubbornly even though she was getting attacked all the time when if she had just run away, yes she may have gone back to prison but at least she'd have been safe?! She was in the raging fire in the cellar for ages at the end and would have died from smoke inhalation long before but wasn't even coughing!!? The bit when the ghost attacks the grocery boy was done quite well (though I still felt Marnie was at fault) but for me the whole film was let down by way too many plot holes and an angry, violent but not very ghostly or scary ghost.
... View Moreomg cant believe their budget... the actors are prretty good the camera guys are not bad the script is ssshit and its an overall mess. there's plenty of stuff to be watching on TV really. its a waste of time and expectations.the bizarre food guy is much more exciting ...or flossing or whatever.
... View More100 Feet starts out well and has a very good performance by Famke Janssen the 1st and 2nd act is pretty good even tho it's not scary or anything the movie benefits from some cool horror elements and the acting was pretty good for the most part. Now the 3rd act is how should i describe it? Awful. The most obvious cgi fires and breaking bones to a person and 2 of the worst deaths ever for a victim and the ghost it self the audience was expecting a big showdown and what it got was a very weak ending that totally ruins the movie because if you're a ghost you at least make sure that you kill the person you're hunting you don't let them throw you a ring and get explode like you're some kind of a mirror. Anyways the movie is fine but it's not scary and the 3rd act sucks!!!
... View MoreUm, honestly I don't even know what to say about this. This is one of the most pointless films I have ever seen. It feels like a whole bunch of random scenes that do not build or develop anything in any way, and then a bunch of stuff blows up and there's fire everywhere. 2 stars for the absolutely ridiculous CGI ghost explosion scene though (Can't make this stuff up). But seriously, that was the movie. And sometimes there was a ghost. The "story" is barebones at best, with no character motivation or development, and virtually no backstory. The character's actions are arbitrary and nothing holds any meaning or deeper purpose. If you didn't read the synopsis you probably wouldn't have a clue what was going on. Just about the entire movie happens within the house, and there are a total of like 3 characters. Dialogue is basic and vapid. Not sure what they spent the budget on because it certainly wasn't the script, the direction, the sets, or the amateur cgi. There really isn't anything else for me to critique because nothing happened. Avoid unless you're trying to fall asleep.
